Celebrating our New Look, Day 2

We’re once again celebrating the new look on my webpage. How do you like ftp, revit? I ADORE it, but then I might be a little prejudiced.

To celebrate I’m going to host a week long give-away — 7 gifts in 7 days.

Today’s winner will receive a copy of Falling to Pieces (ebook or print), as well as a small present. To enter, you only have to leave a comment below. To be entered TWICE, share this blog with someone via a phone call, tweet, email, or facebook post. Then comment again that you’ve done so, and you’ll be entered twice.

At the end of the week, I’ll announce all the winners.

Blessings,

V

Mid-week Inspiration, In Case of Emergency …

It’s one of the first things we teach children. When there’s an emergency, call 9-1-1. We want them to be prepared. We want them to know what to do. So when I saw this photo on Facebook earlier this week, I had to smile. But it does make sense. Doesn’t it? When we’re in need, when we are frightened or Continue reading →
